Leaking ceiling, mold, smelly, dirty, broken screens and locks - this place is awful. The host, the Simple Life, did not address any of our issues despite numerous attempts to contact them. The only positive about this property is the lake view. This place gives Door county a bad name.

We absolutely loved our stay on Kangaroo Lake! The property was exactly as pictured and very clean! The outdoor area was a perfect place for the kids to play. We had to work for part of our trip and spent that time working from the screened in patio - perfect place with a beautiful view! We found the location the perfect, centrally located home base to easily visit each little town (Egg Harbor and Sister Bay were our favorites). Thank you! We will definitely be back!

The house is roomy and allows our family of six to spread out but also has several areas big enough for all to gather. Morning coffee chats in the screened in gazebo, Yahtzee at the kitchen table, and dinner at the screened porch table are some of my favorite times there. Since the master bedroom is on the first floor, the kids take over the second floor with a large room with 3 beds, a smaller bedroom and a sleeping porch with an inflatable mattress, The Andersens are responsive should something come up but rarely does. They provide a grill, row boat and kayaks for the lake and tons of recommendations for stores and restaurants. The backyard and pier give you access to the lake and a large open area to play games. (We bring bocce and kuub). We love the firepit too! It provides all you need for a fun time. Overall an ideal vacation home!

My family and I really enjoyed this quaint Log Cabin. We were celebrating a birthday and had a surprise waiting for us when we arrived. The property is very secluded and private and the lake is crystal clear! The kitchen was cozy, functional and actually a place we enjoyed even though most of our time was spent outdoors!

Perfect spot for gathering and enjoying all that Kangeroo Lake has to offer. Morning coffee on the patio and evening campfires we’re among the highlights, as well as the ease of sailing, rowing and kayaking every day.

The location of the Log Cabin is perfect for Door County. Kangaroo Lake is centrally located, which makes getting to places easy and efficient from this property. Host was very communicative and clear. The Cabin itself has lots of seating areas for guests, including many screened-in porches and patios. (That said, many screens are in major need of repair--this is one area, perhaps minor, that could be improved). The kitchen is tiny, but multiple dining areas, two grills, etc., are major bonuses. The property (land) and shoreline itself are ample and well-maintained. I would definitely recommend this property to other Door County vacationers.
